About Me

Vostok came into existence during September 2003.

The initial idea behind this project was to create a Black/Doom band that in terms of song structure, and riff structure, was more akin to Technical Death Metal and Prog Rock. Lyrically the band was to deal with subjects concerning human nature, the Scottish highlands and several other metaphysical ideas.

Though some material dates back to 2003, only a few songs were completed due to other commitments. Collaborations with members of Cairn are planned for the near future........

ALEX KURTAGIC'S ZT COLUMN

I was saddened to see that in issue 20 of Zero Tolerance magazine, Alex Kurtagic's column was not featured. I am fully aware that the content of his column was logically flawed. However, the worst way...
